i am strongly hoping for that miracle and I believed in it because i did not even expect to beat MsSheka at the NVC race :no: :no: :no: but I have been preparing for over a year since this is my second application maybe that is what gave me the leverage (i canceled my approved 2008 application in february 2009 due to my incomplete divorce at the time).

@ MsSheka the race ain't over yet, let us race to first touch down in the U.S.A i think it will be fun!

All the best to all of us in our 6,7,8 months journey through US immigration. It is interesting that most Americans do not even know a thing about all this process (#######) it is just a unique "place or punishment" for those of us who are crazy enough to marry a foreign spouse. I think we are paying for our actions for deciding against all the eligible singles in this country, LOL :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Ok--so still unapproved--

AUS2USA

Waiter

Sachinky

Carolyn

Who else am I missing amongst the regulars?

LOLA--If your case complete is by the first week of February, you could well be on your way to a March interview!

Hey David - you will be with your family soon. And I did not forget about you if you go back a few pages.

Mike - I did get the JOY card last night. Went to a different newsagency who did have it. Was very odd, the first one checked his machine and said ... NO, don't have it. I don't think he checked right but no matter. I have it now!! Thank you. That's going to save me about $70 a month on my phone bill.

I am in the process of moving house - have to move next weekend so we're going to not harass NVC for a case # until after then. From what I've been reading NVC can be a bit slow and as funny as it sounds, we are fine with that. It was the NOA2 and not knowing that was doing my head in.

OUR JOURNEY SO FAR: (dd/mm/yyyy)

i'm glad you got your phone card! make sure you keep them as evidence too!! I haven't got anything on my bills to say I've called the US... Just used the Joy cards all the time. There is also one called "Hello" or something. If you go to those little asian corner stores, they usually have heaps of different ones for calling overseas.

I just called USCIS and spoke to a very nice woman. She stated that these cases are taking around 5 months to complete. Also that my case has been assigned to an Officer and he should be making a decision within the next 45 days. :crying: But that she would send an email to the officer stating that I called to check the status. (boy what I wouldnt give to have that email address) Hopefully this call will get us a touch and approval. Just crossing our fingers that we will be together by our sons 2nd birthday in August or our 3rd Wedding anniversary in November... :crying:

Hey don't get depressed. We were told the same exact thing both times. They are just saying so as not to get your hopes up. Check online and you will see that you got touched. May be a touch again tomorrow. Within one week you should be aproved. Believe!

Love& prayers,

Aby & Amy
